About Bank of Maharashtra

About this branch

The branch is located at ZEROMILE CHOWK, MAIN NH-227, SHEOHAR, DIST-SHEOHAR. It serves the Sheohar region and is connected to the bank's core banking platform, which means transactions initiated here are instantly visible across all other branches of Bank of Maharashtra. The IFSC MAHB0002467 is used to identify this branch on the RBI payments network.

The role of IFSC in India's payments network

India's electronic payment infrastructure — NEFT, RTGS, IMPS, UPI and the National Automated Clearing House (NACH) — is built on a single principle: every participating bank branch must be uniquely identifiable by an alphanumeric code. The Reserve Bank of India introduced the IFSC system to fulfil this requirement, and that is how Bank of Maharashtra's SHEOHAR branch came to be assigned the code MAHB0002467.

Whether you are receiving a salary on the first of the month, paying a vendor invoice, settling an EMI, or accepting a refund from an e-commerce platform, the IFSC is the silent piece of metadata that tells the network where your account lives. Without IFSC MAHB0002467, money simply cannot be routed to the SHEOHAR branch electronically.

How to transfer money using IFSC MAHB0002467

Online transfers in India are powered by three major channels — NEFT, RTGS and IMPS — and each one requires a destination IFSC. Below is a quick guide for using IFSC MAHB0002467 across all three.

NEFT to Bank of Maharashtra, SHEOHAR using IFSC MAHB0002467

National Electronic Funds Transfer is the simplest way to move money into an account at this branch. NEFT works around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays, and settles in half-hourly batches.

To send funds, add the recipient as a beneficiary in your bank's online portal, key in the account number, paste the IFSC MAHB0002467, and confirm that the system picks up Bank of Maharashtra – SHEOHAR. Submit the transfer request, authenticate with OTP, and the amount will reach the beneficiary in the next clearing cycle.

Real-Time Gross Settlement to SHEOHAR

If you need to transfer ₹2 lakh or more in one go to an account at Bank of Maharashtra's SHEOHAR branch, RTGS is the right channel. Each transaction is settled individually in real time. Use IFSC MAHB0002467 while initiating the transfer and the credit will appear within minutes.

IMPS to Bank of Maharashtra SHEOHAR (IFSC MAHB0002467)

IMPS (Immediate Payment Service) offers instant, 24x7 fund transfers up to ₹5 lakh per transaction. Provide the beneficiary's account number along with IFSC MAHB0002467 in your mobile or internet banking app, and the money is credited to the SHEOHAR branch account within seconds.

NEFT vs RTGS vs IMPS — which one should you use?

All three modes accept the IFSC MAHB0002467 for Bank of Maharashtra – SHEOHAR, but they differ in speed, minimum amount and use case. The table below summarises the differences so you can pick the right channel for the situation at hand.

For most retail customers crediting the Sheohar branch, NEFT or IMPS will be the quickest and most economical option. RTGS comes in for one-off, high-value movements such as property purchases, vendor settlements or large gifts.

UPI payments and IFSC MAHB0002467

UPI (Unified Payments Interface) has become the default way for individuals to send money in India. While most UPI transactions are addressed using a Virtual Payment Address (VPA) like name@bank, the underlying account at Bank of Maharashtra – SHEOHAR is still mapped to IFSC MAHB0002467. When a customer links a savings or current account to a UPI app for the first time, the app silently looks up this IFSC against the account number to verify the account exists. The VPA acts as a friendly alias on top of the same plumbing.

If a UPI transfer to or from this branch fails, the most common reasons are an inactive UPI handle, a daily limit breach or a temporary outage at one of the participating banks — not the IFSC. You can always fall back to NEFT or IMPS using the IFSC MAHB0002467 and the beneficiary's account number to complete the transfer.
